The great Special Sale to-
day surges into the begin-
ming OF its fourth week.
Where is the man or wo nan
within a hundred miles who
does not know OF lit Where
is the family within half
that distance that has not
proh,ed by it? The push
and jam OF the Wholesale
have been somewhat re-
|lieved, but a new pressure
is on us. This is the last
week before stock taking. 1t
is a time when every mer-
chant feels like cleaning out
and clearing out the odds
and ends of his stocks.
Rather have them 60 a,
small prices than carry
them into another year.
We have this end in view
while still helping on the
ISale that is giving us elbow
room. We want the broken
lots to 60 as well as the
crowding lots. Within the
Hast three weeks you have
made many broken lots. l
twas the extra low price tina
hurried you to do this; We
must often make those
prices still lower to hurry
lyou to take the remnants
lOnly a week to do it in.

THE CALIFoRSIA LEGISLATURE has
not reflected much credit upon itself by
elecdng George Hearst TO the United
States Senate. For the few mon .hs
that he was there he only succeeded in
exhibiting himself ss coarse, ill.bred,
illiterste mAu, distinguished by his
"boodle.' Neither his education nor
his breeding At him for the place, and
even his big fortune, 1t is said, was not
the work OF shire I'd and quick calculs-
ton 30 much as some very lucky cir
oumstances. His principal quallhcs-
tion is his bari, and his boodie was bis

school Election.

sShooh sshSssschs
A new candidate for tie short term
was put in the field yesterday in the
person Of +. b. Weirick, cashier of the
First National bank. 1t is perhaps
to say that In this in
stance the office sought the man, and
1t was only after repeated refusals that
Mr.. Weirick yielded 10 the importuni.
ties of his friends and consented 10
have his name used. The popular
ticket Is now "Hsynes & Weirick, /"
and there seems To be no doubt Of its
success. Regarding the candidacy OF
Mrs. Campbell, II was learned late
yesterday thst under the amended
school law, woman 10 ineligible
to hold the Office Of school
trustee, though the right of women to
vote is still maintained. Therefore
the friends of Mrs. Campbell, who pro-
posed using their best endeavors to
elect her will, IL they continue In her
support only lose their vote, as 1t is .
settled fact and SO decided by eminent
legal talent yesterday, that q woman
cannot hold the office of trustee. I'm.
der the circumstances 1t will be no de-
sertion OF this excellent lady's cause
to leave her out of the field to-day, and
her friends should thoroughly under
stand this. or course Mr.. Haynes
having no opposition (Mr. Naples
having definitely withdrawn In his
favor will be elected TO the long term.
The only contest will be between Lisk
and Weirick, and as the business men
and the young men, and q goodly pro-
portion Of the ladies are enrolled under
Mr.. Weirick's banner IL would seem
that success for him Is certain. OF
course neither Of the contestants care
a rush wheth,r they are successful or
not, but it seems that there is an un-
deriying issue in this brief campaign
that has got to be settled aud the fight
will be strongly waged with this pur-
pose In view. Mr.. Lisk will lead q
forlorn hope and no doubt make a
strong fight, but IL looks as II the odds
were too strongly against hun for any
hope Of success.
